EVM & SVM Execution Layer for Canton Network
15 of 15 events
Zenith has been invited to join Progmat's Tokenized JGB and On-chain Repo Working Group alongside MUFG, Mizuho, Sumitomo Mitsui, BlackRock Japan, State Street, SBI Securities, and Japan Exchange Group, conducting a joint study on bringing Japan's $1.6 trillion JGB repo market on-chain. A comprehensive report is expected in October 2026 with issuance pilots targeted for later this year.
First post in a Canton fundamentals series. Walks through how Canton Coin is minted via network participation, burned via traffic consumption, and how the burn-mint equilibrium ties supply to real usage.
Zenith's internal test environment processes 600,000+ atomically composed EVM-plus-Canton transactions with 1.5 second average latency on an unoptimized stack.
Zenith crosses 500,000+ EVM transactions through Canton with 100% success rate and 1.5 second average latency, proving consensus-level atomic composability.
Zenith enables EVM applications to compose atomically with Canton-native assets via consensus-based atomicity instead of HTLCs. Contrasts both approaches and explains the external_call() primitive for protocol-level atomic settlement.
Zenith integrates Pagrin's AI-powered, compliance-native rewards infrastructure into Zenith Stack, opening the platform to stablecoin issuers, neobanks, and financial apps building on Canton.
Zenith adds Gustav Arentoft (ex-MakerDAO BD, ex-1inch institutional, StableLab founder) as Head of Ecosystem and Angelo Laub as Engineering Lead heading into Q3 mainnet.
Canton ties application revenue directly to transaction activity through its $CC App Rewards model. Zenith extends this to EVM developers without fragmenting the base layer's economics the way typical L2s do.
Zenith's internal test environment crosses 200,000+ EVM transactions executed natively through Canton consensus with 1.4 second latency.
Zenith takes a Tier-1 Super Validator seat on Canton Network with maximum governance weight, sharing the same weight class as Visa, DTCC, Nasdaq, and Chainlink.
First technical milestone: atomic transactions between Canton Network and Zenith EVM in a controlled test setup. Covers the architecture, the external_call() primitive built in Daml, and the end-to-end transaction lifecycle.
Zenith launches publicly as the execution layer between Ethereum's application ecosystem and Canton Network, opening a direct on-ramp into Wall Street's institutional blockchain.
Zenith launches as a bytecode-compatible EVM execution environment for Canton Network, letting developers deploy unmodified Solidity apps that atomically interact with Canton-native assets. SVM support is planned; mainnet is targeted for Q2 2026.
Case study on a decentralized perpetual exchange targeting institutional clients launching its own Ethereum-compatible chain via Zenith Stack, settling on Canton to access regulated capital flows while keeping control over fees and execution economics.
A global asset manager deploys its $1.5B tokenized money market fund to Zenith EVM, keeping Ethereum compatibility while gaining confidential execution and institutional settlement via Canton Network's Global Synchronizer.
